musings on style, food, travel, and the art of being posh

24. some poems

hello children 🙂

Feeling extremely pressed for time currently, as I was sailing all last weekend, plus Halloween and upcoming sailing events for the next two weekends in a row….fun times, right? Add schoolwork on top of all that and you’ve got yourself one extremely stressed out girl.

I know I promised a Halloween costume thing for this week (I was Rosie the Riveter) but I have literally zero time to go out and take pictures, and I couldn’t the weekend of Halloween, so I’m thinking next week will just be an October favorites post and this will be some previously written little poems that I kind of like.

I jot these down at random moments during the day, if I have a bout of inspiration.

sorrynotsorry

I get lost when you say you’re sorry

You really aren’t.

Because if you were

You would’ve apologized

A long time ago.

not in that way

i want to travel the world with you

(but i have to settle for looking at photographs)

i want your hand to fit around mine as we walk through the rain

(but i’m alone and i have no umbrella and no love to keep me warm)

i want to lay in the sun with salt in my hair and your lips on my neck

(but the sand next to me is cold)

i want your head on my pillow and your things in my room

(but my bed is empty)

i want you

(but you don’t want me)

i love you

(but not in that way, you say)

i want

i want

i want

leap of faith

there’s a strange

sad thing

about love

because the higher you fly

and leap

and dance

the more it hurts when you fall.

kisses,

m xx

(ps. it just started pouring rain and thundering outside and I am LOVING THIS WEATHER. Good riddance to the heat! I welcome these 60 degree days with open arms ❤
